🛍️ Hillside Mall

The complex commercial facility "Nishinokubo Hillside Mall" is about a 15-minute drive from downtown Sendai. It serves not only as a gateway to tourist spots like "Akiu Onsen" and "Sakunami Onsen," but also as a transit point for surrounding attractions, attracting many tourists and local residents. The mall primarily features stores for everyday use, such as children's products and sports goods. Additionally, there are shops selling groceries, home decor, toys, and facilities like kindergartens and tutoring centers for local residents. The attached aquarium "AQUATERRACE Nishinokubo" and the wooden indoor creative play area "Kansei no Mori" are also among the reasons for its popularity. Especially at AQUATERRACE Nishinokubo, visitors can see rare creatures and uniquely designed display tanks, along with picturesque exhibits, making it a shopping center where one can easily spend an entire day.

The shopping center is well-located and offers convenient access to other tourist attractions. It features a variety of stores, making it a complex commercial facility for shopping, dining, and entertainment. The red brick buildings filled with an exotic atmosphere and the AQUATERRACE Nishinokubo are both very popular photo spots.
